Other claims from this paper (13)
- Intervention effect Seed priming significantly improved radicle length, plumule length and allometric coefficient.
- Intervention effect Seed priming significantly improved seedling biochemical changes.
- Association Cultivar had no significant effect on studied traits except mean daily germination and plumule length.
- Observation Dezful had higher germination rates than Yellow white, averaging 13.52 seeds per day.
- Association The priming by cultivar interaction was significant for seed vigor index.
- Association The priming by cultivar interaction was significant for allometric coefficient.
- Intervention effect Humic acid 1.5% in Dezful gave the highest seed vigor, 10.09.
- Intervention effect Methyl jasmonate pretreatment in Yellow white gave the highest allometric coefficient, 1.57.
- Intervention effect Humic acid 1.5% was the most effective priming treatment for germination, biochemical changes and seedling growth in Dezful.
- Intervention effect Humic acid 1.5% significantly outperformed the control in germination performance.
- Observation Dezful germination performance exceeded Yellow white.
- Association Priming effects on germination characteristics were more pronounced in Dezful than Yellow white.
- Recommendation The authors advise humic acid priming for root development and seedling establishment.
